I'm thinking about buying it but I've heard mixed reviews. I think it's a very fun game but there are definitely flaws I overlook because of my tastes. So don't buy it on my account.

[QUOTE="majadamus"]...definetly Pokemon. Be the fool, and call it kiddy if you want. Luigi_VincetanaPokemon is teh kiddy, real men play games that use the Barbie licence.... :PThe downfall of Pokemon is that you cannot play it in public. Which takes the portable purposes out of the game. If you break it down though there is nothing about the game that is kiddy seeing to the fact that most kids below the age of 9 never finish the game. What gives Pokemon it's kiddy image is that terribly dubbed Japanese cartoon.
[QUOTE="ZeldaMaster32"]Fire Emblem easily. IbacaiAnd I now fail at life because I forgot this series. :(
Failure? No. Lack of proper judgement? Yes. :P
I've always found it interesting that people love Golder Sun. The story is nothing interesting, nor are the characters. I find that the game reeks of Camelot's Beyond the Beyond, which is a piss poor RPG. The Djinn development system lacks persistence. The only thing the game had going for it was that it did push the GBA graphical ability, even then it still reminded me of Beyond the Beyond.-RPGamer-What can I say, I like the games. :P

BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!
You have disrespected my ancestors now we must fight!!!!
Here's my list, all of which I would choose over Golden Sun:
I would pick Pokemon, but the series is so rehashed that over time I've tired of Nintendo's lack of ability to really go anywhere with the franchise.
Shining Force (My favorite SRPG series even if it is shallow) is another I forgot to put on my list. Not my day today.Here's my list, all of which I would choose over Golden Sun:
- Final Fantasy Tactics
- Jeanne D'Arc
- Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
- Tactics Ogre
- Riviera
- Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth
- Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Superstar Saga
- Final Fantasy I-VI (save for II)
- Etrian Odyssey
- Fire Emblem entries
- Yggdra Union
- Phantasy Star Collection
- Front Mission
- Breath of Fire I, II
- Shining Force
- Disgaea

yeah golden sun seems to be winning.
pokemon i would count only if you're referring to any version before crystal version.
Pokemon Red / Blue and Pokemon Gold / Silver were the best pokemon games (still are, to me), and also among the best handheld RPGs.
Golden Sun, Tactics Ogre : Knight Of Lodis and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance are also notable mentions.
To all those saying Pokemon GTFO of this thread.
Anyway, here's a list of some of the best RPG's available on handhelds, mostly Nintendo based handhelds:
